Designed with Love

From chalkboard paint walls to kids’ playroom, Kai and Jillian clearly designed their maisonette in Choa Chu Kang with their 2 young children in mind, when they moved into their home about a year ago.

The couple had chosen the resale flat due to its proximity to schools and nature. Yew Tee Park is right on their doorstep, while Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, their favourite weekend hangout, is only a short drive away.

Kai and Jillian entrusted the renovation of their flat to a friend, with only a few requests. “We wanted our home to feel warm and welcoming, and have plenty of storage space, especially for the kids’ toys,” Kai said.

While the renovation took about 4 months to complete, the results are definitely worth it.

A combination of light wood and monochromatic decor accents gives the home a cosy feel, even as there is ample room for the children to play and move about.

The kitchen island is where the family spends quality time, from cooking and baking, to entertaining guests. A dining table that doubles as a table tennis table add delight to the space!

The couple also grows plants, and irrigates them with condensate water from their air-conditioner. “We hope to inculcate good recycling habits in our children from young, by showing them how to do it,” Kai explained.
